Dear Parents:

Douglas Youth Baseball and Softball (DYBS) is again looking for your support in this year’s fundraising efforts.

We have an unwritten goal at DYBS to provide a great experience for our players while having our registration fees amongst the lowest in the Blackstone Valley. We are able to meet this goal through the generosity of our sponsors and our annual raffle fundraiser. The money we raise from this annual raffle always goes directly towards field maintenance and capital improvement items, and this year will also help to offset some of the additional expenses we are incurring to ensure we provide a safe environment for all of our players, coaches and parents.  

We ask each player to sell five (5) raffle tickets (but players can sell as many as they would like).  They are $10.00 each. Based on the success and popularity of the last few years, we are once again doing a Calendar Raffle format again this year. We will have daily winners from June 1st through July 3r. We have cash prizes from $25 up to $250. We also have several generous sponsors that have donated gift certificates ranging from $25 up to $100 in value, as well as a pair of Red Sox tickets and an autographed photo of Carlton Fisk. Prize winners will be drawn daily, then contacted and announced on our Facebook page. 

We issued tickets to all coaches this week during pictures, so you may already have your tickets. If not, you should receive them from your coach in the next few days. Your coach will also collect proceeds and tickets stubs from you. Checks should be made out to “DYBSL Organization Inc.”

We are offering a pizza party to the team that sells the most tickets and will highlight those teams that sell the most tickets on our Facebook page and our website, www.douglasyouthsports.com.  Please support DYBS by selling as many tickets as you can.

We ask that you return your sold tickets, along with the money raised, to your coach by May 28, 2021.  That gives us a few days to get all the tickets compiled so we can begin our drawing on June 1.

Thank you in advance for your support in this important endeavor.  If you have any questions, or would like more tickets, please feel free to contact us at douglasbaseballandsoftball@gmail.com.

We would also like to recognize and send a huge thank you to all of the sponsors that donated to this year’s raffle:
